M.Dobuzhinsky? Could this be it?
 

It's worth it to carry a picture supposedly Mistislava Dobuzhinsky for attribution ?

Signed lower right applied later painting a picture (front sign the catalog corresponds to a sample of his signature that he put on his works until 1920 ) Unfortunately the signature can not be sfotat well as not trying to
on the reverse side also has a signature ( like his usual signature on paper)
That tell me?

the back of the photo

And why you have decided to buy questionable things?

no it was not long ago
 
did not have to buy

This is before the strange behavior that might be it.
Something like that is difficult to forge.
It is not clear what is depicted.

Actually, all clear Dobuzhinsky depicted:

This picture does not correspond to any period of creativity Dobuzhinsky.


The only option - this is when he was about 8-10.

Or 12.

But is unlikely to have his works of this period of his work, to compare.

Cyril put the specimens mainly watercolors are difficult to compare with the information I have work.
I found a few of his oil paintings .
According to the description work - Study Italian place ( many times he was and Italy ). there are similarities in writing trees ( seen a few oil paintings of Italy) , swabs, very similar (if we just oil)
Sitting looking in the archives and the various books and correspondence, trying to find a place in Italy ( of course if it is available)
Do not even know :cool:>
On this occasion, even patched bibliotekarskim Batanov

" Kirill laid " images are not as "samples", but as an example of clarity and understandability by artists.

Familiar processing.
This is NOT Dobuzhinsky.
She was on the examination in Grabar, authorship is not confirmed!

Yes there was at the dawn of the 90s did not confirm but did not say it's a fake

so I decided to look for, what if it reveals

The odds tend to zero!

In the foreground, a dark shape with the words. It is not clear what it is , headstone, just a monument, it is not clear , but it may clarify the time and place of origin , it may be a sketch for the scenery ...

Added after 10 minutes
Yes, this work is written in good taste, carefully ... Try to look over what themes the artist worked at the time , maybe this is a sketch for the subject ....

nowhere to be seen , the creation (and under UV looked) so it's hard to understand - if it is a sketch for the scenery is to what
in the foreground is likely fence - I also thought that on the fence that it is written but it's probably just smear paint ( not looked through the letters )

but I'm looking for - something suddenly find
nevertheless it seems to Italy since trees of their climate

I'm still inclined to think that this is very similar to Dobuzhinsky. Here's why: the background is very good and the way the sun shines through the trees themselves the "holes" in this such a special rhythm and the whole picture is very tactful. Feels it is similar to the period of the modern range of Bilibin ...
